Spied: Aston Martin Vantage getting a facelift
Aston Martin seems to have all the trick in the hat of late, the last one pulled to please all sports car lovers is the Rapide which could be the coolest 4-door speed monster to date. Back in 2009, Aston Martin injected some steroid under the hood of the Vantage in the form of a V12 engine which gave the car a little more oomp-hold-on-to-your-seats performance. Aston Martin seems to be preparing the Vantage for a facelift and the grand tourer has been caught on cam.
Seen on testing on the road, the Aston Martin mule seem to sport the side skirts of the Vantage but looks more aggressive with its vented hood, carbon fiber lip spoiler, rear diffuser, and rear spoiler. It actually features a mix of the V8 and V12 Vantage.
